Not a knock on family structure, just a rebutle to the idea that $15/hr forces you to live with your family. I had 1 roomate and lived off of $11/hr for 1 year post college before I got a better job in a costal Florida city. Wasn't that hard and it was in 2018, not 1997.
If you rewrote the title to be 1/3 o men 18-34 are either so addicted to drugs that it cripples their ability to make money and or have a mental illness restricting them from advancement in life, I'd believe that more than millions of people just simply not working from pure choice. I don't believe the gig economy where everyones an uber lyft food delivery drug dealer only fans instagram personality and making $$$ under the radar of typical statistics about the economy. I think alot of people were maturing finicially into the biggest bull market in history followed by the cheapest debt in history. Americans are up to their gills in debt and the vast majority operate with no savings. I would not be suprised if 1/3 of 18-34 see no issue with taking loans out and using that as income for the year, some people are legit retarted and do not posses the ability to plan for tomorrow, let alone retirement.
Also these stats don't go deeper by differentiating between those in college/school of some sort and those who stay with parents for cultural and or medical reasons. Those two instances alone would keep at least 1/4 18-34 perpetually out of work and or their own home.

Avg rent for a 500sqft studio apartment is 1100 in a good city like jacksonville. So theres 13k a year just there. 1.5k for gas, 100 a week for food is 5k a year rounded down, health insurance is 300/mo for dog**** coverage, 3.6k a year. Car payment for beat up pos used car another 250/mo, 3k a year there. Avg car insurance is 2300/yr in florida.
And that 30k you earned still gets taxxed at 12%. So thats really 26k.
You are literally in the negative and thats just paying for mandatory things to survive. Its truly impossible to make it. Even a 40k/yr salary doesnt cut it.
This world is rigged, and its ran by riggers.

I see this so much. My 26 year old former FWB rarely works and mostly smokes weed and plays video games and lives with his parents with no car Hence why he became a former FWB, as I got turned off by his lack of motivation in life.

Heres some ancetdotal evidence for you from this month alone....
My friend just signed a lease in St. Pete FL for a 700sq/ft house in the hood for $700/month. Didn't believe her, so i looked it up, and yeah, multiple chitty listings for under 1k. Bad neighborhood, bad houses, but roof over head and 21st century living for sub 1k/month.
I was 22-23 so I was on my parents health insurance until 26 as virtually every 18-26 year old is. Now that I am above 26 I have my own health insurance through work...its roughly $50/month for full coverage plus dental, vision blah blah blah. You are getting ripped if you pay $300 through an employeer.
In Florida you only need basic car insurance coverage. I pay about $100/month on a vehicle from 2012...so again your number is too high.
1.5k for gas is on the high end unless you commute 45 mins+, but thats a fair number esspecially now.
The food number is legit and this year/next gas is propbably more than 1.5k.
Fair argument, but what people who make 30k/year need to live like they make 30k/year. I did it, wasn't a problem. Was I saving money hand over fist? no. Did I ever skip a meal, no...did the lights even go off, no....did I drive 80 miles for a weekend "get away" and eat out for 7 meals straight....no...and thats why it worked. Live within your means until your means allow a higher living standard. 15/hr should and is entry level, thats what it should be...a 1-2 year salary where you live just above poverty until you ammase enough work ethic, connections, skills to earn a higher salary and move into middle class. All of this goes directly out the window the second you are injured, get cancer or have a kid, so you are right that its rigged if you fall into those categories, but for a 22 year old guy....30k/year is a fine salary for the first year or two post school/early adult life.

Boyos, I'm going to resist the urge to mock this situation and speak some truth:
Men are giving up because there is no reason to drive towards success. A man's desire in life is to start a family. But women these days are rotten to the core. Why marry and produce children with a woman when she'll eventually file for divorce, take the kids, take the house, get child support (which she won't spend on the children), get alimony, etc?
She'll then find herself some deadbeat boyfriend who will move in with her (in the man's former house) and they'll both live for free off of the husbands child support and alimony payments. And then when the kids enter their teen years, the deadbeat boyfriend will probably sexually assault them.... and the father will be powerless to do anything about it because the family court system will prevent him from taking custody of his children.
The West is doomed, the White race is doomed. The babyboomer generation sold out the country when they adopted liberalism.

Hell getting out of your parental home when you're young is the anomaly in human history. In many cultures there is no shame in that, the west will probably evolve back to that lifestyle if prices stay high.

"Just get a better paying job" my nibba there IS NO MIDDLE CLASS. Youd be pained to find a better paying job that isnt in an expensive big city. Learn how to code? Congratulations all of the faang companies are in san francisco, now you are living like poverty, but this time 100k/yr and broke instead of 40k.
Theres no winning broh. I quit my firefighting job because my county only pays 39k a year lmao. I went to uni, majored in network engineering, and even my field is having a hiring freeze now. Feel bad for young bros srs.
Just a matter of time until an incel jihad happens in the west srs.

Maybe, living with family will actually be a good thing in the long term......the US's main issue comes down to strong familial values.

Even American lower middle class/slightly above poverty quality of living is still some of if not the best in the world.The point isamericans cant afford to live at even 40k a year.And thats 51% of the current workforce making under 20/hr. Keep in mindI rounded everything down and used florida, one of the cheapest states to live in to compare.
"Just get a better paying job" my nibbathere IS NO MIDDLE CLASS.Youd be pained to find a better paying job that isnt in an expensive big city. Learn how to code? Congratulations all of the faang companies are in san francisco, now you are living like poverty, but this time 100k/yr and broke instead of 40k.
Theres no winning broh. I quit my firefighting job because my county only pays 39k a year lmao. I went to uni, majored in network engineering, and even my field is having a hiring freeze now. Feel bad for young bros srs.
Just a matter of time until an incel jihad happens in the west srs.

Your numbers for Florida were 20-30% inflated...I know because I am a 20 something year old in Florida...I dont need to check national averages and make assumptions...I can go to my checking account and see exactly what the price is for these things.
What even is middle class? Who cares...from a finicial standpoint you should be doing everthing in your power to make money so you can aquire assets so later in life you don't have to work at Mcdonalds at age 70. Middle class was a cake walk in the 70's, but things have changed and along with those things that have changed are our expectations of qaulity of life. More cars, expensive meals blah blah blah. I acknoledge the assest aquiring game is rigged with housing and the stock market...but its still a viable option...just harder for those at 40k/year obviouslly.
Shame about your situation...but those are both good skills, keep a positive attitude and a budget and you'll be fine.

Still think its worth rat racing? Just lmao.

I'm just looking at it objectively from their position
Let me put it this way, in Russia, tons of people I know-- even in their late 20s-- will live at home and there's no shame in it. I think that's kind of cool. The thing is, if they aren't losers, they are usually working a pretty prestigious job, saving tons of money to buy a flat of their own, helping their parents out around the house, plan to move out when they get married (which Russians do an average of 5 years younger than Americans I believe), etc. To me, I have no problem with that kind of lifestyle. It's not the coolest way to live, per se, but I don't think someone doing that should be shamed.
I think the both of us know that that does not describe the average millenial or zoomer American who is living at home in their mid-twenties. Sure, there are corner cases, and they are doing just fine (I know some people who live like that), but for the most part they are unemployed NEETs collecting entitlements for some LARP malady or financial hardship contributing nothing to society and behaving like degens in their personal life. Sorry, those kunts need the rope.

promotions are gotten by black men or women or some gay guy, cucked by taxes to pay for abortions and for homes for drugs, get told i'm a sinner for being white
